Na i-forward na ng DMP yung medical namin including the xray. Actually it really depends on your DMP if they will forward it to CEM with problems (mas matagalan kayo). Mas mainam na na ang DMP magdedecide on wither they will hold your medical and wait for the result. Just like in our case, until now wala paring reply from CEM. Yung batch namin nag PPR na sila.

Share ko po ito from cic..

Question 7: Tuberculosis, sexually transmitted diseases, etc.When there is a past history of tuberculosis, the details from the applicant should include the date of diagnosis, duration and type of treatment. In all applicants, whether excessive demand exempt or not, copies of previous treatment reports, x-rays and other relevant information should be obtained and forwarded with the immigration medical forms, if possible. If the medical history reveals any suggestion of previous tuberculosis, then clinical, bacteriological and radiological examinations will be required to determine the activity of the disease.

Where there is an abnormal chest radiograph but no history of previous active tuberculosis, or there is a history of previous tuberculosis with or without previous adequate treatment, the DMP should generally note the abnormality and send the file in for review by the regional medical office. In most cases the file will be furthered until:

a minimum of two chest films, taken at a minimum interval of three months, have a stable appearance; andthree sputum samples taken at least 24 hours apart, examined for acid-fast bacteria (smear), and incubated for six to eight weeks for tubercle bacilli by standard culture methods are negative.In the absence of secretion bacteriology and culture, serial chest radiographs showing stability of abnormalities compatible with pulmonary tuberculosis for greater than six months may be requested.

All applicants who are diagnosed clinically, radiologically or bacteriologically as having active pulmonary tuberculosis must be treated and rendered “inactive” before entry to Canada.

History of PTB few years back - medication treatment started but asked by the dr. to stop after 2 months due to severe allergic reaction. Monitored chest xray for 2 times within 4 mos. NO changes in the scar. Haven't followed up until late last year, 2012, when we requested for medical certificate. No available films for comparison but able to get and submit hard copies of all xray findings to SLEC.
